Blinx and Squarespace, row by row

Every answer is in words, and the same answer looks the same on both sides. Blinx's plan limits sit in its own cells; Squarespace's column describes its Basic plan, and its $0 plan where it differs.

**Checked on 10 November 2026. Blinx's prices are before VAT. Each Squarespace price carries the tax basis its own page gives, or says it gives none, so the two may not be on the same basis.** How we chose these rows: 9 are the same on every comparison (price, the $0 plan, trial and card, one page or several, own domain, and what happens if you stop paying). The other 4 are rows for website builders: features Squarespace's own pages list, and features Blinx has, each answered for both: "No, checked" where a product has nothing like it, "Not published" where Squarespace's pages do not mention it.

Squarespace and Blinx: the usual questions

Does Squarespace include booking?

Booking comes through Acuity, a second subscription: from $16 a month billed yearly, $20 monthly, or $27 with text reminders, VAT basis not published, as its page showed on 10 November 2026. A Blinx page takes booking requests from your opening hours on every plan, and on Pro you say yes or no to each.

Can I publish a Squarespace site during its trial?

Its trial runs 14 days and needs no card, but publishing needs a paid plan. A Blinx page is live during your trial, and stays live on the basic plan afterwards if you do not pay.

How much is Squarespace in the UK?

On 10 November 2026 its UK pricing page showed Basic at £12 a month billed yearly or £16 monthly, plus VAT. At £1 = $1.343 that day, £16 is about $21.

Is Blinx a website builder like Squarespace?

Not really. Blinx is one page for a local business, filled from your Google listing, with a call bar, booking requests and opening hours shown open or closed. If you want several designed pages, a shop or a blog, Squarespace suits you better.

Blinx in brief

$5 a month or $46.80 a year in US dollars, plus VAT at 20% for UK businesses, after a 15-day trial with no card. A page you do not pay for after the trial stays live on the basic plan, with fewer features. Stop paying at any time and nothing is deleted.
